Scalix Forums

I have finally got Scalix installed.

Running 11 GA Release On FC5

Now when i try to login to the admin console, i get this error.

Could Not Login
Could not fetch server list
Possible problem with administration server

Here is my hosts file.

72.249.12.222 mail1.virtualaa.org mail1
127.0.0.1 localhost

I have seen this before when I had ubermanager/res setup to use kerberos on one service but not the other, you must have both set to use kerberos OR not, most users would probably not use kerberos for caa/res unless you have the res/ubermanager users defined in your directory.

Check: /var/opt/scalix/sx/res/config/res.properties

# Enable Kerberos secure communication between Ubermanager and RES - set to true or false
# Note: Ubermanager *must* have a matching ubermanager.kerberos.mode value in its ubermanager.properties
# configuration file
res.kerberos.mode=false

to make sure it matches: /var/opt/scalix/sx/caa/scalix.res/config/ubermanager.properties

# Kerberos stuff
# Enable Kerberos secure communication between Ubermanager and RES - set to true or false
# Note: RES *must* have a matching res.kerberos.mode value in its res.properties configuration file
ubermanager.kerberos.mode=false

Thanks for the reply carlPjohnson,


Yes they both are the same.

Can you try logging into the Admin server, then go and pull up the /var/opt/scalix/XX/tomcat/logs/catalina.out log and see if you have any related errors at the exact time? Also, I am assuming you have restarted the scalix-tomcat engine since the install, right?

what are they both set to, false or true? (the kerberos setting, that is)

and also, check your logfiles scalix-res.log and scalix-caa.log. In particular, logging about registration and/or heartbeat is relevant. Also, check your hostname settings and portnumber settings from res.properties.
